Great vegan spot with solid lunch specials. Their vegan chicken is some of the best in the city in my opinion. The service is also always great.

It's a quirky and inviting restaurant for cozy dinner. Highly recommend for vegetarians / vegans.
The Dan Dan noodles are must order and chilli oil wantons were also good. Staff will nicely help to toss and mix noodles in front of you.
Staff is really helpful and recommends food as per your taste.

First time adventuring by myself in New York City by myself. With myself being vegan and NYC being a cultural hotspot, Spicy Moon was one of the first results on a google search. Went during lunch and boy did it not disappoint. Dan Dan bowl with the vegan chicken and spring roll side def hit the spot. I’m afraid I won’t be hungry for the rest of the day because I am FULL. Michael was the bartender servicing the bar (which is where I was sitting), was very attentive and made my visit all the more better.
I noticed that there were some clinically critical reviews regarding this place. Ignore them. The portions are more than adequate, and deducting stars for things that are completely out of the restaurant’s and staff’s hands is ignorant to the nuances of working in the service industry. 10/10 would recommend to even the most critical vegan diners.

We got a walk in for 2 people which was lucky and the food was amazinggg. Highly recommend the Kung Pao style it was incredibly tasty and a big portion. We got the daily special of dumplings in chilli sauce they were spicy as expected but soo tasty! Staff are really lovely too

I had a really disappointing experience at Spicy Moon. The place was dim to the point of being uncomfortable almost no lighting, which already set a bad tone.
But the worst part was the food. Everything tasted stale and reheated, like it had been sitting around too long. Within hours, I felt bloated and my stomach hurt badly. Definitely not what I expected from a spot that’s supposed to be popular. I wouldn’t recommend eating here at all.

The dandan noodle is recommended, but the kong pao chicken is more like a general Tao chicken, disappointed. Rest food are good!

Starters were good. Main item cumin tofu was too salty and sour. For the quality and quantity, over priced and over hyped

Food was fantastic. We got takeout because my friends have a baby, but will have to eat in sometime - atmosphere seems great too.
Tasty and authentic cuisine. Food arrives very fast so that does make me wonder how fresh it is although it tasted great. I wasn't a big fan of the lighting in this restaurant and the music was really fast so it would get you to eat faster and get out. But the food was yum so much.

The Dan Dan noodles with vegan beef is their most famous dish. But good food generally, except for the number of deep fried options (including the crispy eggplant) - less my thing. A bit pricy for an Asian restaurant Updated from previous review on 2025-11-30
Great spot for a group dinner. Love the scallion pancakes and sour cream dumplings. Nice cocktails as well. Definitely good to get a reservation as it gets quite busy.
